Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of terahertz light sources, in particular to a few-period high-field-intensity coherent THz radiation source generation system.
Background
Terahertz (T-ray) light sources are considered as next-generation light sources, and applications range from cancer diagnosis to material science. Due to its non-ionizing properties, good spatial resolution andthe ability to penetrate biological tissue several millimeters. In the context of cancer detection, T-rays are a suitable alternative to X-rays. In addition to biological imaging, powerful T-rays have many applications in material science as diagnostic tools, such as ultrafast spectroscopy. By focusing the high power T-ray to a millimeter spot size, an electric field on the order of GV/m can be generated. The electric field can be used to study the structural transformation of polar molecules. The associated tesla transient magnetic field can be used to generate magnetic or spin excitation and track its dynamics on a picosecond time scale. Currently available high-power T-ray sources are produced from large facilities such as linear accelerators to compact light sources based on electro-optic crystals. In the linear accelerator, relativistic electrons are converged by a bending magnet to generate a terahertz light beam with the peak power of MW. Electro-optic crystal based light sources use high repetition rate laser systems to generate T-rays by optical rectification in a nonlinear crystal. Both sources have both advantages and disadvantages. For example, accelerator-based T-ray sources are high peak power MW, high repetition rate sources, however, they are bulky, expensive and therefore offer only fairly limited availability. Based on optical rectification or more economical compact light sources, T-ray pulses comparable to the accelerator light source energy can be achieved, however, the damage threshold of the nonlinear crystal limits the T-ray field strength. The plasma does not have such a limitation. Therefore, the laser plasma THz light source has been a hot topic of research. In fact, the mechanisms by which T-rays are generated are diverse. For a plasma filament generated by bicolor laser, the energy of T rays is up to 5 mu J, and the conversion efficiency is 10-4. However, at higher laser intensities, terahertz radiation tends to saturate due to intensity clamping, low electron density, and reabsorption of the radiation. The plasma generated during the interaction of high power lasers with solids is not so limited and is also a known high field strength T-ray source, but is less well studied.
Prior art [1 ]: proof of principle tests by Yugami et al, university of Yudou, Japan, demonstrated that in a perpendicular magnetized plasma, an ultrashort, ultrahigh power pulsed laser excites the Cerenkov wake to generate radiation (see the article https:// doi. org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.89.065003). The radiation frequency is in the millimeter range (up to 200 gigahertz). The radiation intensity is proportional to the theoretically expected magnetic field strength. The polarization of the emitted radiation is also detected.
Prior art [2 ]: yi et al, charlemerss theory of physical engineering, switzerland, proposed a method for generating high-intensity terahertz (THz) pulses by irradiating a plasma waveguide with high-power laser light. When a laser pulse enters the plasmonic waveguide, a highly charged electron beam is generated and accelerated to 100 MeV by the transverse electromagnetic mode. When the electron beam leaves the plasmonic waveguide, a significant portion of the electron energy is transferred to the THz radiation by coherent diffracted radiation. The result shows that 100 mJ-level relativistic strong terahertz pulses with adjustable frequency can be generated on the existing laser device.
Prior art [3 ]: d' Amico, national institute of technology, France, discovered that THz radiation (see the article https:// doi. org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.98.235002), generated in air, was emitted forward in the form of a strongly collimated terahertz beam, which they attributed to the transition in the wake field of Cherenkov radiation, generated by space charges moving at the speed of light generated after the ionization front. It uses normal air as generating medium, only needs one femtosecond laser beam, and does not need precise alignment. More importantly, the terahertz radiation source can be easily positioned in a place very close to the target, possibly several kilometers away, so that the problem of transmission of terahertz radiation in the air is solved. This new terahertz radiation amplitude exceeds other radiation sources by orders of magnitude in terms of effective radiation to distant targets.
Prior art [4]: the grand and well-known topic team of Shanghai traffic university found that strong low frequency radiation (https:// doi. org/10.1103/PhysRevE.69.025401) with a center frequency near the reciprocal of the drive pulse duration was observed at the vacuum-plasma interface. The radiation originates from large amplitude plasma waves excited at the plasma boundary. For 3X 1017 W/cm2The induced radiation power of the incident pulse can reach megawatt level, and the energy is millijoule level. It has been found that an appropriate density scale length near the plasma boundary is advantageous for generating induced emission. Such density distributionThis can be achieved by emitting laser pulses laterally into the gas jet or, when a solid target is used, by adjusting the delay of the pre-pulse from the main pulse.
In order to generate THz with high field strength more efficiently and to realize practical application of light sources in related scientific fields, researchers have proposed various methods to improve the field strength and energy conversion efficiency of THz sources. However, in the prior art, besides the low conversion efficiency, the alignment of the laser is difficult, and a new technical solution is needed.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
the invention overcomes the limitation of the prior scheme of generating the high-field THz source, and adopts the interaction of the tightly focused femtosecond laser and the rarefied helium. When laser is transmitted in the thin plasma, displacement current which changes along with time is formed through a cavitation bubble tail field generated by the laser, and then a self-generated angular magnetic field is generated. Under the action of the self-generated angular magnetic field, electromagnetic waves are radiated through a Cerenkov radiation mechanism, and the frequency of the electromagnetic waves is slightly higher than that of plasma. When the gas density is constant, the radiated electromagnetic wave is THz wave.
The invention can adopt the interaction mode of femtosecond laser with extremely short pulse width and supersonic jet to obtain the THz ray source with extremely high field intensity, and the THz ray source can be used as a high-performance THz ray source for detection and diagnosis in the fields of security, biomedicine and the like.

The invention has the characteristic of high field intensity, and the electric field intensity of the radiated THz wave is dozens of GV/m by adopting the magnetized Cerenkov tail field, which is far higher than the THz source which is mainstream at present. The field strength is comparable to that of prior art [2], and according to literature investigations, is the strongest THz electric field known at present.
The invention has the characteristic of broad spectrum, and the generation medium of the THz wave is plasma. Thus, in essence, the THz wave must be broad-spectrum, with a frequency broadening of up to 100% and a center frequency near the plasma wavelength, slightly above the plasma eigenfrequency.
The THz radiation source has the characteristic of high time resolution, and because the working medium of the THz radiation source is nonlinear plasma wave and only has 1-2 oscillation periods, the THz radiation source only has 1-2 plasma periods, and finally the total pulse width is less than 1 picosecond, and the THz radiation source has the characteristic of high time resolution.

The mature commercial repetition frequency Taiwa level laser at present can completely meet the requirement, does not need expensive additional equipment such as a super strong external magnetic field generating device, greatly improves the THz radiation field intensity, and simultaneously reduces the equipment purchase and maintenance cost as much as possible.
Compared with the prior art [2], the THz pulse generator can generate THz pulse by only one laser beam, does not need a complex and precise alignment technology, and greatly reduces the experimental difficulty. At the same time, no expensive and inefficient pre-pulse suppression measures need to be taken, compared to the prior art [3 ].

Example 1:
as shown in fig. 1, a few-period high-field-strength coherent THz radiation source generating system includes an ultrashort pulse laser 100 and a vacuum target chamber system 101, and is characterized in that: an ultrasonic nozzle system 102, a short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103, an off-axis parabolic mirror 104 and a light path system are arranged in the vacuum target chamber system 101, the ultra-short pulse laser 100 is connected with the short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103, the short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103 is connected with the ultrasonic nozzle system 102, the ultrasonic nozzle system 102 is connected with the off-axis parabolic mirror 104, and the off-axis parabolic mirror 104 is connected with the light path system.
As a preferred arrangement scheme, the few-period high-field-intensity coherent THz radiation source generating system is provided with an ultrashort pulse laser 100 for generating laser and a vacuum target chamber system 101 for converting laser waves into THz radiation sources, wherein the vacuum target chamber system 101 comprises an ultrasonic nozzle system 102, a short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103, an off-axis parabolic mirror 104 and a light path system; the light path of the ultra-short pulse laser 100 is connected with the short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103, and the short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103 focuses laser and projects the focused laser onto the plasma edge formed by the supersonic nozzle of the supersonic nozzle system 102.
During specific use, ultrashort laser pulses with pulse widths of only a plurality of laser periods are generated on a commercial laser device (ultrashort pulse laser 100), and are focused on the plasma edge formed by an ultrasonic nozzle of an ultrasonic nozzle system 102 through a short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103 with a relative aperture F/3, and the laser pulses push away electrons from the transverse direction and the radial direction to form nonlinear plasma waves.

In addition, an optical path system is provided on the optical path for further separation and detection.

and the vacuum target chamber system 101 is used for packaging the supersonic nozzle system 102, the short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103, the off-axis parabolic mirror 104, the spectral beam splitter 105, the band-pass filter 106, the polarizer 107 and the pyroelectric THz detector 108.
Wherein, supersonic nozzle system 102 is arranged behind short-focus off-axis parabolic mirror 103, and adopts supersonic nozzle system (its main structure is controller, electromagnetic valve and supersonic nozzle) of Japanese SMARTSHELL supersonic gas nozzle system;
a short focal length off-axis parabolic mirror 103 which is arranged behind the ultra-short pulse laser 100 and adopts a short focal length off-axis parabolic mirror with a relative aperture of F/3;

Adjusting the back pressure of the supersonic nozzle to make the plasma density after laser pre-pulse ionization 1X 1018/cm3Corresponding to a plasma wavelength of 33And (3) micron. From a number of numerical calculations, it was found that a double-vacuole structure is created inside the plasma, which vacuole can be approximately seen as a sphere with a radius slightly larger than the beam waist of the driving laser. Meanwhile, electrons discharged by the laser flow back under the action of electrostatic force, and an angular magnetic field is formed. The magnitude of the magnetic field is 30T.
